More than four years after the onset of the pandemic, this article presents a perspective on how to achieve a more equitable global allocation of medical supplies for future pandemics, drawing on the distinction between \"ideal\" and \"non-ideal\" schemes of cooperation. We will consider two perspectives: first, improving solutions under current, non-ideal circumstances where non-cooperation dominates in the short and medium term, given the challenges of an uncooperative international landscape; and second, implementing long-term policies that aim at ideal proposals, assuming an increased level of cooperation in the future. This evaluation will address the past successes and shortcomings of the COVAX facility, and also the negotiations on a pandemic treaty led by the World Health Organizations, to better address future pandemics. We will discuss key issues that ought to be of central concern when moving towards more cooperative solutions in the future.","PeriodicalId":36835,"journal":{"name":"Global Bioethics","volume":"36 1","pages":"2497602"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12064108/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144014090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Few studies have been conducted in sub-Saharan African on PTA despite its importance in distributive justice. This study aims to explore the stakeholders' perspectives on PTA and its feasibility in Ethiopia. An exploratory qualitative study using in-depth interviews was conducted with 22 stakeholders involved in clinical trials study and review. Deductive thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. We found that research participants had limited knowledge on PTA. They opined that both trial participants and communities should benefit from clinical trials and multi-stakeholder collaboration was key in PTA planning and arrangements. However, they were uncertain of PTA feasibility in Ethiopia mostly due to a lack of legislation, regulations and guidelines on PTA and fear of losing sponsors because of increased costs resulting from them being obligated to provide PTA. It was recommended that Ethiopia establishes legislation and guidelines to govern PTA. Multi-stakeholder engagement in PTA planning and arrangements is key for meaningful PTA as the responsibility is shouldered by all parties.","PeriodicalId":36835,"journal":{"name":"Global Bioethics","volume":"36 1","pages":"2497599"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12054573/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144027659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thirty-three articles were selected for the analysis. The studies showed different results when the risk factors were detailed individually. However, the pandemic context proved to be a complex element that created vulnerability associated with grieving. Bioethics presents itself as a locus of interdisciplinary discussion for a more profound understanding of the complex specificities and, based on the social and political responsibility of Protection Bioethics to protect vulnerable populations, it is recommended to mental health professionals who intentionally explore the impacts of the pandemic on the grieving process. The suffering of people bereaved during the pandemic must be publicly recognized, offering safe spaces for reception and sharing.","PeriodicalId":36835,"journal":{"name":"Global Bioethics","volume":"36 1","pages":"2442162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11780696/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143081122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The collection of such biosamples is increasingly included in biobank and cohort studies. While collection is considered \"non-invasive\" by biomedical researchers (compared to sampling blood), community perspectives may differ. This cross-sectional, qualitative study utilising eight focus groups aimed to determine the feasibility and acceptability of collecting ostensibly \"non-invasive\" biological samples in Malawi. Breastfeeding women, couples, field workers, and healthcare providers were purposively sampled. Data about prior understandings of, barriers to, and feasibility of \"non-invasive\" biosampling were analysed. Participants described biomaterials intended for \"non-invasive\" collection as sometimes highly sensitive, with sampling procedures raising community concerns. Sampling methods framed as physically \"non-invasive\" within biomedicine can consequently be considered socially \"invasive\" by prospective sample donors. Biomedical and community framings of \"invasiveness' can therefore diverge, and the former must respond to and be informed by the perspectives of the latter. Further, considerations of collection procedures are shaped by therapeutic misconceptions about the immediate health-related utility of biomedical and public health research. When researchers engage with communities about biosampling, they must ensure they are not furthering therapeutic misconceptions and actively seek to dispel these.","PeriodicalId":36835,"journal":{"name":"Global Bioethics","volume":"35 1","pages":"2398303"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11385664/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142297493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, with the rapid increase in the number of non-invasive prenatal tests, particularly at non-certificated medical facilities, in response to the growing demand from pregnant women, the Japanese government and medical professional associations have enacted radical changes marking an active commitment to the provision of information on these services. While a major justification for these policy changes is to ensure respect for reproductive autonomy and women's self-determination, they may reinforce the concern regarding discrimination. This article investigated the argument that these new policies may reinforce discrimination and examined three objections to this argument. The results revealed that the recent policy changes, particularly for specific fetal traits, may imply a negative belief about people living with the same traits. Consequently, fundamental institutional changes are necessary.","PeriodicalId":36835,"journal":{"name":"Global Bioethics","volume":"35 1","pages":"2398299"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11370675/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142126790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explored the outcomes of youth advisory group on health and research engagement (YAGHRE) in rural Cambodia. In May 2021, the Mahidol Oxford Tropical Medicine Research Unit (MORU) partnered with a local health centre and a secondary school to establish a youth engagement group. Ten students underwent training and led health engagement activities in schools and communities. Activities were documented as field notes and audio-visual materials which underwent content analysis using theory of change supplemented by iterative discussions with YAGHRE members and stakeholders. Five major outcomes were identified: 1. Increased respect. Engagement activities developed based on input from students and stakeholders may have fostered greater respect. 2. Built trust and relationships. Frequent visits to MORU's laboratory and interactions with researchers appeared to contribute to the building of trust and relationship. 3. Improved health and research literacy. Learning new health and research topics, through participatory activities may have improved literacy; 4. Improved uptake of health and research interventions. Health promotional activities and communication with research participants potentially increased the uptake of interventions; 5. Improved community health.

In this paper, we propose to consider the impacts of AI applications in medical care from the One Health paradigm and long-term global health. From health and environmental justice, rather than settling for a short and fleeting green honeymoon between health and sustainability caused by AI, it should aim for a lasting marriage. To this end, we conclude by proposing that, in the upcoming years, it could be valuable and necessary to promote more interconnected health, call for environmental cost transparency, and increase green responsibility.
